This has been a rough day for me. I have been feeling tired and have felt unrested this evening. I started my day with lots of energy, but I lost steam as the day went on. I have to give myself grace today and realize that it’s okay to rest. Not only is it okay, it should be prescribed. Despite the my energy being low, I still get to bank some wins:
- Productive with work
- I read for hours
- I recovered from my lethargy and still wrote this blog post when I didn’t feel like it
I think it’s appropriate to quote Thich Nhat Hanh here: “Happiness is a function of compassion. If you do not not have compassion in your heart, you do not have happiness.” This message is for you when you have bad days. Have compassion for yourself and understand that it is okay to feel out of sorts, knowing that you will back in your normal stride really soon.
